Good guy but feeling meh

I've been seeing a guy for six months, he's great, we get on well, sex is good, he cooks for me, we eat out, go walking, hang out at the beach and we just generally have a nice time. his kids and mine get on really well (to them we are just friends right now). We have a difference of opinion on somethings which I think is good to have some banter he also has ongoing issues with his ex which is quite draining and he is down about it quite a bit but I do understand as I've been through it.

I just get a feeling that somethings not right? I'm happy when I with him but I don't feel excited to see him or anything like that? I just can't put my finger on it and it's a shame.

Should I continue and hope that it improves? I don't want to string him along. Or call it a day now before anyone gets hurt? Any advice/experience? I'm not getting any younger and there aren't that many good guys around here! 😂

6 months in you should be excited to see him. It sounds fine, but is fine enough? Life is long, hopefully, so you want a partner who knocks your socks off and sets your world on fire.

You sure he's a good guy? Ongoing 'draining' ex issues (is she 'crazy' by any chance?) 'differences in opinion' being treated as 'banter' (cringe) and a gut feeling that 'something is not right'. Maybe your gut knows something you should listen to.

@Pinkbonbon yes he is...ex isn't crazy... they actually get on well just an issue that I won't go into on here but out of his control.

I had this recently too. I just didn't 'feel' it even though I wanted to. I posted on here about it and I actually think it was my gut telling me something wasn't right with him.
I'm not saying that is the case here but, your gut is something to be trusted. If you're not 'feeling it' now then I doubt you will. Its difficult when there is nothing obviously wrong but I genuinely think when you know, you know.
